I used to be a big fan of The Ataris, and in a sense I admire Kris Roe's determination, but the truth is, "So Long, Astoria" is where I stopped caring, and as for who Kris hires to play his songs, I never really cared. Bad album, irrelevant line-up.

This is like the "jumping the shark reunion special featuring the real actual shark!"

Just what I've always wanted, and just in the nick of time for Christmas! I've always thought "So Long, Astoria is such a groundbreaking punk album, but I think it would better appreciated if I could hear 50 or 60 demos from the recording session of this trailblazing piece of art!"
